Description of Work: The company was hired to demo our 30+ year old deck and design and install a paver patio, complete with a seating wall.The job also entailed removing old landscaping.The guys were always on time, worked with the weather, mindful of cleaning up after themselves and left the sight ready to begin again the next day. We appreciated how they kept us informed of the process and what was done each day.More importantly we wanted to have this ready for a graduation celebration and JR delivered the project in on time!

Response from J.R. Thomas Landscaping Inc
Our records show that we snail mailed a proposal to this client on April 19, 2012. We are not sure why they would not have called to ask about the proposal but waited seven months to post an unsatisfactory encounter with our firm. We have emailed this client privately and included a copy of the proposal.

THIS COMPANY IS OUTSTANDING! THIS IS THE SECOND TIME I HAVE USED THEM. EXCELLENT WORK! I WOULD RECOMMEND TO ANYONE LOOKING FOR HELP WITH THEIR LANDSCAPING. I FOUND THEM VIA THEIR OUTSTANDING GRADES ON ANGIE'S LIST AND THEY DID NOT DISAPPOINT! THEY CALL YOU BACK PROMPTLY, DO WHAT THEY SAY THEY'RE GOING TO DO, AND ARE ACCOMMODATING TO THE CUSTOMER. TONY CAPPA, THEIR LANDSCAPE MANAGEMENT MANAGER WHO HANDLES MOST RESIDENTIAL SALES, WAS GREAT TO WORK WITH. HE WAS VERY CONSCIENTIOUS AND WILLING TO DO WHAT'S RIGHT. THEIR DESIGN WORK WAS GREAT AND THEY NEVER FLINCHED AT MAKING CHANGES THAT I ASKED THEM TO DO. THEY DID A GREAT JOB WITH INSTALLATION AND RE-SODDED ANY GRASS AREAS THAT WERE EVEN REMOTELY DAMAGED BY THEIR WORK. THEY WERE EFFICIENT AND PROMPT. I AM EXTREMELY HAPPY WITH THE QUALITY OF THEIR WORK FROM TOP (SALES) TO BOTTOM (WORK CREW). I WOULD NOT HESITATE TO GIVE THEM A CALL FOR ANY LANDSCAPE NEEDS. I CAN SEE WHY THEY ARE A TOP PERFORMER ON ANGIE'S LIST!
Description of Work: PLANTED 15 DIFFERENT SHADE TREES AND EVERGREEN TREES ($7800). PREVIOUSLY DID LANDSCAPE DESIGN AND INSTALLATION ($7100). DUG NEW BEDS AND PLANTED NEW SHRUBS AND BUSHES AROUND NEW DECK AND HOUSE FOUNDATION. INSTALLED BRICK PAVER LANDING AT FOOT OF DECK STAIRS.

THEY ARE GREAT LANDSCAPE DESIGNERS, AND DID A GREAT JOB. WE ARE VERY PLEASED WITH HOW THINGS LOOK, WHICH I GUESS IS THE MOST IMPORTANT THING. THEY ARE A TAD EXPENSIVE (NOT OUTRAGEOUS COMPARED TO OTHERS, BUT A LITTLE HIGHER). THE BIG DING IS THAT THEY ARE SLOW TO RESPOND TO CALLS. EVERY TIME I NEEDED TO GET IN TOUCH, I HAD TO CALL OVER AND OVER TO GET A RESPONSE. I'D LEAVE A MESSAGE AND NOT HEAR BACK IN A WEEK, AND THEN I'D CALL AGAIN. WHEN JR CAME OUT TO ASSESS THE SITUATION, I'D HAVE TO CALL 2 OR 3 TIMES OVER THE NEXT WEEK OR TWO TO REMIND THEM THAT THEY NEVER SENT ME THE QUOTE. MAYBE THEY'RE A BIT OVEREXTENDED WITH THEIR JOBS? MAYBE THEIR PHONES ONLY RECEIVE CALLS AND DON'T DIAL OUT?
Description of Work: REMOVAL OF PINES, AMENDMENT OF SOIL AND PLANTING OF 15 6' TREES IN 100' LONG BERM BEHIND HOUSE.

WOW! AFTER NOT HEARING FROM 3 LANDSCAPING REFERRALS WE CALLED JR'S OFFICE AND SPOKE WITH BEVERLY WHO IS A COMPLETE PROFESSIONAL. WE WERE IN A PANIC, BECAUSE WE WERE MOVING TWO DOGS FROM ARIZONA AND NEEDED A FENCE AND SOD IN AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. EVEN AFTER THE BUILDERS CONSTRUCTION DELAY JR SAID THEY WOULD TAKE CARE OF US. JOHN DESIGNED THE BACK YARD AND KEPT MY HUSBAND INFORMED OF HIS PROGRESS. ON THE FIRST DAY THEY ARRIVED WITH AN IMPRESSIVE CREW OF TRUCKS, EQUIPMENT AND MEN. THEY WERE VERY THOROUGH IN THEIR WORK. NICK DID WONDERS WITH THE GRADING AND JR DOESN'T JUST LEAVE YOU HANGING. WE CALLED WITH QUESTIONS ON OUR SOD AND THEY SENT SOMEONE OUT IMMEDIATELY TO CHECK ON IT. THEY ALSO CHECKED ON THE YARD EACH WEEK TO MAKE SURE THE SOD WAS GROWING. VERY IMPRESSIVE AND WE PLAN TO HAVE THEM BACK OUT IN THE SPRING TO DO THE FRONT YARD. OUR EXPERIENCE WITH JR AND JOHN HAS BEEN BY FAR OUR BEST EXPERIENCE SINCE MOVING TO CINCINNATI. VERY MUCH WORTH THE MONEY.
Description of Work: JR, JOHN AND THEIR CREW COMPLETELY TRANSFORMED A BARE BACK YARD (WE JUST PURCHASED A NEW HOME) INTO WHAT NEIGHBORS CALL A PARK LIKE SETTING WITH SOD, 23 TREES AND GRADING TO EVEN OUT THE YARD. IN ADDITION, THEY COORDINATED THE FENCE COMPANY TO INSTALL A FENCE IN OUR BACK YARD.

THE DESIGNER AND JR LISTENED TO WHAT I WANTED AND TRANSFORMED MY THOUGHTS INTO A BEAUTIFUL, RELAXING YARD. I CANNOT SAY ENOUGH ABOUT THEIR PROFESSIONALISM. I HAVE BUILT BEFORE AND WORKED WITH OTHER LANDSCAPERS, THIS COMPANY RATES HIGHER THAN I IMAGINED. THEIR PRICE WAS APPROPRIATE FOR THE WORK AND QUALITY OF PLANTS. MY YARD IS THE ENVY OF THE NEIGHBORHOOD. MY NEIGHBORS CAN'T SAY ENOUGH NICE THINGS. I WOULD HIGHLY RECOMMEND.
Description of Work: NEWLY CONSTRUCTED HOME WITH NO LANDSCAPING. THEY DESIGNED THE ENTIRE LANDSCAPING, FRONT AND BACK AND INSTALLED. THEY ALSO COORDINATED THE WORK WITH THE SPRINKLER SYSTEM COMPANY AND THE FENCE INSTALLATION.

THE WORKERS WERE VERY COURTEOUS AND TOOK GREAT CARE IN PLANTING AND CLEANUP. COMPARED TO WHAT I PAID FOR LOUSY BUILDER LANDSCAPING, IT WAS WORTH IT.
Description of Work: LANDSCAPE DESIGN, TREE AND SHRUB PLANTING. THEY ARE EXPENSIVE BUT THOROUGH AND PROFESSIONAL. THERE WERE TWO SITE VISITS AND DETAILED SKETCHES AND PROPOSALS WERE GIVEN WITHOUT COST OR OBLIGATION. MANY COMPANIES CHARGE A FEE FOR THIS SERVICE WHICH IS REFUNDED ONLY IF THEIR PROPOSAL IS ACCEPTED.

I AM SO IMPRESS WITH THEIR PROFESSIONALISM, THEIR APPRECIATION FOR THE DOLLAR, THEIR ABILITY TO WORK RAPIDLY GIVEN OUR TIME RESTRAINTS, THEIR CONCERN FOR OUR SATISFACTION. EVERY TIME I COME HOME I STOP AND SMILE BECAUSE IT LOOKS SO NICE. WE WANTED MORE OF A SIMPLE LOOK RATHER THAN SOMETHING REAL EXTRAVAGANT. THE COST CAN BE SO RELATIVE BASED ON THE PLANTS YOU CHOSE, ETC
